How do I unlock the Cryptid Sidewinder Mastery blueprint in Modern Warfare 3?

The Cryptid Bootcamp event offers players nine challenges that offer unique rewards upon completion. These challenges vary in difficulty, with some being completed in a single match and others requiring more time. Players can accept challenges in either MW3 Multiplayer or MW3 Zombies to earn specific rewards.

The ultimate prize is the Cryptid Sidewinder Mastery Blueprint, which requires players to invest a lot of time and effort. To unlock it, players must complete all eight challenges in a single category – either all eight multiplayer challenges, or all the zombie challenges.

The challenge is themed around mythical creatures, which the Cambridge Dictionary defines as creatures that appear in stories and some people believe exist but have yet to be proven, such as the Loch Ness Monster or Bigfoot. All rewards, including Mastery Blueprints, are related to mythical creatures, providing players with a themed, engaging experience throughout the event. This adds an extra layer of appeal for players seeking to unlock the Diamondback-exclusive Mastery Blueprint.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III is a 2023 video game in which the player takes on the role of a soldier shooting in a realistic modern world. The game was developed by Sledgehammer Games and published by Activision. The game is the sequel to Modern Warfare II (2022) and is part of the larger Call of Duty series. You can play it on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S from November 10, 2023.

In the game, you will join the special unit 141, which is made up of different countries, and try to stop a bad guy named Vladimir Makarov, who wants to start World War III. The multiplayer part of the game has 16 old maps from Modern Warfare 2 (2009), and they plan to add more new maps later. There is also a new zombie mode where you and others can fight against computer-controlled enemies in the open world.

Originally planned as a supplement to Modern Warfare II, Sledgehammer Games turned it into its own game after developing Call of Duty: Vanguard (2021). After some leaks, they officially showed the game in August 2023 and let people play it in October. Upon release, Modern Warfare III received mixed reviews, especially for its story mode.

The Call of Duty series was first released by Activision in 2003 and has changed a lot over the years. It was originally themed around World War II, but then moved to a more modern setting with Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare in 2007. This marked the beginning of the Modern Warfare sub-series.

Different game studios such as Infinity Ward, Treyarch, and Sledgehammer Games have all contributed to the series. Treyarch made World at War in 2008 and launched the Black Ops sub-series in 2010. Sledgehammer Games added games like Advanced Warfare in 2014 and Call of Duty: WWII in 2017. The series recently rebooted with Modern Warfare and the latest game, Modern Warfare III, was released in 2023.

Call of Duty is extremely popular, with over 400 million copies sold as of April 2021, making it the best-selling first-person shooter series according to the Guinness Book of World Records. It is the most successful video game series in the United States and the fourth best-selling video game series worldwide.
